Trumpsters need to wake up. Agreed Trump and Clinton both have high name recognition and high negatives.

Trump and Clinton can do almost nothing to change the opinions of the undecided in a favorable direction. They can only increase their negatives.

But a large number of people, especially the undecided, are mosty influenced by friends and family, not by the media or candidates.

When Trumpsters go around insulting those not already on the Trump wagon, as happens both on FR and on other pro-Trump sites, they drive people away from Trump and hurt Trumps chances.

More importantly, if these Trumpsters insult their friends and neighbors and in-laws and cousins they will lose that vote for Trump.

At this point, Clinton supporters and Trump supporters are the ones who can convince the undecided to decide. Many of the undecided, those who follow politics closely, and including many Cruzers have consciously chosen to not decide until the last week. So the burden is on the supporters of candidates to be convincing salespersons who know how to win-friends-and-influence-people and how-to-close-the-deal.

But remember, the candidates can increase their negatives.

Cut out the infantile “Trumpsters” label.
